android-platform-art as this in debian/tests/control:
https://salsa.debian.org/android-tools-team/android-platform-art/-/blob/master/debian/tests/control

    Tests: dexdump-dexlist
    Depends: dexdump, dexlist

autopkgtest fails on ppc64el with:
https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/testing/ppc64el/a/android-platform-art/9669069/log.gz

    E: Unable to locate package dexdump
    E: Unable to locate package dexlist

dexdump and dexlist are part of src:android-platform-art but are not
built for ppc64el.  britney should automatically know that Depends:
dexdump, dexlist cannot be fulfilled on ppc64el and skip the test.

badpkg: Test dependencies are unsatisfiable. A common reason is that your
testbed is out of date with respect to the archive, and you need to use a
current testbed or run apt-get update or use -U.

Hi,

Which are stripped by dpkg when put in the Testsuite-Trigger field
because they come from the source.

Ack

But britney doesn't (in the current infrastructure) have that
information, so it currently can't do that.
